The By-Pass Spillway Park located off CR 40 in Inglis will be the launch site for an exciting trip down the river. This year's Challenge offers two options for the participants…Option one is a Race with men’s kayak, women’s kayak, and tandem kayak/canoe categories. Option two is a River Rally, no class or gender groups, for those who choose to just relax and enjoy the scenery. The rally requires the participants to find clues and answer questions as they paddle down the river. The individual with the most correct answers will be the winner. The Race and River Rally will both start at the Inglis By Pass Spillway of the Withlacoochee River and head west. The River Rally will travel approximately 5 miles and end at the Winding River Park in Yankeetown. The Racers will pass the park and continue approximately one mile to the Yankeetown Marina, turn around and head back to the Winding River Park, making an approximate seven mile trek. Lunch will be served and awards presented at the Yankeetown-Inglis Woman’s Club across the street from the finish line. Participants will be shuttled back to the By-Pass Spillway and their vehicles.
